Continue to increase the amount of information on the historical monuments in Romania and improve the quality and quantity of Romanian contributors. By scheduling a real-life editing event (edit-a-thon) we will recruit new Wikipedians and teach them how to contribute.

Did you achieve your project goal? How do you know your goal was achieved? Please answer in 1 - 2 short paragraphs.

Yes, the goal was achieved: the amount of information on the historical monuments in Romania has improved (6000 new images, 343 new articles) and some new people contributed for their first time to a Wikimedia/Wikipedia project. The edit-a-thon, something we organized for the first time was what we consider a success.

this is a metric we failed to achieve. a possible explanation is the poor advertising before the competition started, which happened mainly because our grant application was late and we ran out of time

more than 5% of the participants will be involved in other Wikipedia-related activities

10 people in the Edit-a-thon, 6 in the article contest, 2 with general Wiki work

since the total number of participants was lower than expected, this was easy to achieve

according to Glamorous, 19.10% of images uploaded to Commons are used on Wikipedia. it does not count the images uploaded on Romanian Wikipedia, which should improve the percentage a bit. For reference, for the images from WLMRO 2014, the usage reported by Glamorous is 15.42%

We are trying to understand the overall outcomes of the work being funded across our grantees. In addition to the measures of success for your specific program (in above section), please use the table below to let us know how your project contributed to the Global Metrics. We know that not all projects will have results for each type of metric, so feel free to put "0" where necessary.

Next to each required metric, list the actual outcome achieved through this project.

Where necessary, explain the context behind your outcome. For example, if you were funded for an edit-a-thon which resulted in 0 new images, your explanation might be "This project focused solely on participation and articles written/improved, the goal was not to collect images."

Did your work increase the motivation of contributors, and how do you know?

Partially: some contributors had been enthusiastic, with increased motivation, while some others feel burned, with decreased morivation. This was learned from face to face conversation, email exchanges and public conversations in the Romanian language board

Option A: How did you increase participation in one or more Wikimedia projects?

New images were added to Commons and new articles to Romanian Wikipedia. Part of the images came from first-time contributors. New contributors participated in the Edit-a-thon.

Option B: How did you improve quality on one or more Wikimedia projects?

Coverage with photography and articles has increased for hystorycal monuments in Romania.

Option C: How did you increase the reach (readership) of one or more Wikimedia projects?

Social networks campaigns (a more successful one on Google Plus and a less successful one on Facebook) popularized the contest, Wikipedia and Commons. The photo exhibition and VSLO presentation helped either, even if in a more limited amount.
